ABSTRACT:
An ink jet cartridge for use in a continuous cartridge refill system has a top side, a front side, and a handle at the juncture therebetween. A flexible ink supply tube for connecting the cartridge with an ink reservoir extends through openings in the handle of the cartridge and is connected to a fitting on the top side of the cartridge which communicates the supply tube with the ink chamber of the cartridge. Routing of the tube through the handle provides strain relief for restraining the application of a pulling force on the tubing at the point of connection thereof with the coupling.
